yeah yeah, its a .ws....but this has gotta be worth something considering how many country music fans there are out there.
 
What does it matter how many country fans there are in the world, if they aren't coming to your site. I own RockMusicIsCoolasHell.com. Since theres so many rock n roll fans, does this mean it has a large resale value? Of course not.


Sure there's potential with the name you have, but that can be said for 99% of the domains out there.
You obviously will not get any type-ins due to the .ws extension.
Right now, I see it being worth the registration fees, until it's developed and starts tapping into the country music market.


Regards.
 
If someone wanted to make a Country Music Site do you think they would rather have countrymusic.ws or countrymusiciscoolashell.com
 
The thing is. Both of the domains have something in common.
They will never be a type-in!
Simple.

One domain is flawed for being to long.
And one domain is flawed for being a .WS

Same thing man. Your name is as worthless as, "CountryMusicIsCoolAsHell.com"
 
Isn't .WS an abbreviation for WorthlesS anyhow? :)

Jokes aside; it seems even prime one word .ws names don't sell, maybe its ok if your going got put up a personal site, but for resale value I doubt any of them have much value.
 
Yes but when people find the site countrymusic.ws it is easy to remember.
 
How are people going to find the site?
I have yet to see a .WS in a Search Engine.
And who is to say it's easier to remember. That is an assumption. Because still to this day, I get mixed up with sites that have dot-com & dot-net versions.
Nevermind, if you through a dot-ws in the mix.

And that domain I mentioned, was exaggerating a bit.
I doubt anyone would register a six-word domain.
However if we take countrymusicONEWORD.com
I think it would be easier to remember then your domain.
All because of it's extension. You seem to not realize, there has been no branding of the dot-WS extention. Only a limited amount of computer-savvy individuals know about it. Which accounts for less then 1% of the net.
So someone may go to your site, leave. And try to come back the next day, searching under "countrymusic.com" & "countrymusic.net", ect ect.
